NHF's Mission

The NHF is an international consumer-education, health-freedom organization working to protect individuals’ rights to consume healthy food, take supplements and the choice to use alternative therapies without unnecessary government restrictions.

NHF's Vision

NHF envisions a World free of any and all artificial impediments to securing and retaining excellent, abundant health and health freedom. Individuals should be free to choose for themselves their own means of maintaining and regaining optimal health.

NHF's Promise

NHF, together with health-freedom friends and colleagues throughout the World, vows to change and save lives through our uniquely leveraged position on the international political stage impacting food, nutritional supplements, and healing.

(NHF is an international health-freedom federation despite the original “National” moniker given by founder Fred Hart in 1955. With your loyal help, we long ago crossed the “pond” to also promote health freedom to the World.)

As humans, we have evolved with the natural environment over millennia. We have learned what to eat and what not to eat, what to grow and how to grow it and our diets have developed accordingly. We have hunted, gathered, planted and harvested. Our overall survival as a species has been based on gradual, emerging relationships with the seasons, insects, soil, animals, trees and seeds. And out of these relationships, we have seen the development of communities whose rituals and bonds have a deep connection with food production and the natural environment.

Natural health was dealt another series of blows during the week of July 16-22, 2017, in Geneva, Switzerland at the Codex Alimentarius Commission meeting held in that Summer-hot city. There, the Commission decided to accept the miserably low daily levels for Vitamin D and Vitamin E that the Codex Nutrition committee had proposed to its parent body, the Commission. There, the Commission decided that glyphosate and many other pesticides posed no threat to human, animal or insect health. There, the Commission lost its way, clearly caving in to industry interests and abandoning its integrity and the values upon which it was founded.

Once again, National Health Federation (NHF) President and General Counsel, Scott C. Tips, is singled out by Codex Alimentarius not only to contribute to their magazine publication at the 40th Session of the Codex Alimentarius Commission in Geneva, Switzerland but to participate on a special panel, giving a presentation at the CAC this July. The theme of the publication will be “The Science of Food Standards.”

Scott Tips has attended international Codex committees consistently over 17 years; longer than most country and industry delegates, who tend to rotate in and out over time. President Tips literally has more active participation at the global seat of power for food and nutritional supplement standards than any other health-freedom activist in history. NHF is literally Your Voice for Health Freedom. This is the massive value of your membership and support of the NHF. Scott’s work, and that of other NHF attendees, which you support, impact the lives of over 7 billion souls on this Planet protecting you and your family by providing food safety and security.
